Sources that carry it
9 sourcesOfficial City of Los Angeles open-data product exposing LADBS Certificate of Occupancy records through dataset 3f9m-afei, an anonymous SODA API, and downloadable full files. Rows carry CofO number, issue date, latest certificate status and status-effective date; assessor book/page/parcel, legal-description and street-address keys; the related PCIS permit; permit and building facts; and, where populated, an `occupancy` value explicitly defined as the approved use for the structure. Public metadata identifies LADBS, official provenance, CC0 1.0 dedication, a weekly committed refresh, and data updated 2026-08-17; the checked live data contained 128,551 rows with CofO issue dates from 2005-01-26 through 2026-08-14. This is a certificate-record dataset, not proof of present operations: 82.89% of checked rows have null occupancy, no separate certificate-type or successor identifier is emitted, and current interpretation must be pinned to `cofo_issue_date`, `status_date`, `latest_status`, and the dataset-level source vintage.

Official standalone inventory of San Francisco tall buildings, focused on attributes relevant to earthquake performance and post-earthquake recovery. It is building/address/representative-parcel pointable and emits structural material/system/type, known seismic-retrofit year, permit-document stamp years, completion year, design-code year, site/foundation information, collection date and primary source. The dataset description says that as of October 1, 2018 it contains the complete 156 buildings taller than 240 feet plus 24 buildings over 160 feet. It is not a mandatory-retrofit compliance register: retrofit_date means a known retrofit year, permit_date fields are document date-stamp years, and completion_date may come from a CFC or Emporis. None proves present resistance or current code compliance.
